  • the misfire detection system mainly comprises a rotation detecting unit 1 for measuring a time required for a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine to rotate through a certain angle, and a signal processing unit 2 for processing the time required for the rotation and detecting a misfire in the internal combustion engine.
  • the rotation detecting unit 1 comprises a ring gear 11 and a magnetic sensor 12 .
  • the ring gear 11 is provided with teeth as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B .
  • an output of the magnetic sensor 12 is changed.
  • FIGS. 2A and 2B show the ring gear 11 suitable for use in a 6-cylinder internal combustion engine. In the case of the 6-cylinder internal combustion engine, because three cylinders are subjected to explosion while the crankshaft makes one rotation, a tooth-to-tooth circumferential span indicated by an arrow-headed circular arc in each of FIGS.
  • the tooth-to-tooth circumferential span in FIG. 2A corresponds to an angle through which the ring gear 11 rotates during the explosion stroke of one cylinder when an engine revolution speed is low
  • the tooth-to-tooth circumferential span in FIG. 2B corresponds to an angle through which the ring gear 11 rotates during the explosion stroke of one cylinder when the engine revolution speed is high.
  • FIG. 3 shows one example of configuration of the signal processing unit in the misfire detection system.
  • the signal processing unit 2 comprises a non-combustion state time-required-for-rotation memory 21 for storing the time required for the rotation per cylinder when a fuel cut command is issued, a combustion variation memory 22 in which a combustion variation per cylinder is stored in a stage of engine production, a filter 23 for extracting a particular component from a value obtained by subtracting the sum of the time required for the rotation in a non-combustion state and the combustion variation, which are outputted respectively from the above two memories, corresponding to a cylinder determined to be in a combustion stroke, from the time required for the rotation outputted from the rotation detecting unit 1 , and a threshold determination unit 24 for determining the occurrence of a misfire when an output of the filter 23 exceeds a threshold.
  • FIG. 4 shows one example of the time required for the rotation, which is outputted from the rotation detecting unit 1 and is inputted to the signal processing unit 2 .
  • the time required for the rotation varies to some extent.
  • the variation in the time required for the rotation is increased from that when no misfires are generated.
  • the speed increase makes smaller the difference between the magnitude of the variation in the time required for the rotation when no misfires are generated and the magnitude of the variation in the time required for the rotation when a misfire is generated. Accordingly, the accuracy in misfire detection is reduced.
  • Factors causing the variation in the time required for the rotation include the occurrence of a misfire, the combustion variation per cylinder, and a manufacturing error of the ring gear 11 . Therefore, the accuracy in misfire detection can be increased by performing the misfire detection by using a value that is obtained by subtracting, from the time required for the rotation, variations attributable to the combustion variation per cylinder and the manufacturing error of the ring gear 11 .
  • the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the manufacturing error of the ring gear 11 appears as a variation in the time required for the rotation per cylinder when the fuel cut command is issued.
  • the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation mainly depends on unevenness in an amount of exhaust gas recirculation and an intake amount of air defined by design of an intake pipe.
  • the latter variation primarily depends on design of an engine system, and hardly depends on individual differences of engines. Therefore, the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation in some engine is substantially the same as that attributable to the combustion variation in another engine manufactured according to the same design.
  • the signal processing unit 2 includes the non-combustion state time-required-for-rotation memory 21 and the combustion variation memory 22 .
  • the time required for the rotation per cylinder is stored in the non-combustion state time-required-for-rotation memory 21 with respect to a combustion stroke cylinder, i.e., a cylinder which is determined to be in the combustion stroke at that time by a combustion-stroke cylinder determining unit 5 .
  • the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation is stored in the combustion variation memory 22 with respect to the combustion stroke cylinder.
  • the time required for the rotation in the non-combustion state stored in the non-combustion state time-required-for-rotation memory 21 and corresponding to the combustion stroke cylinder and the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation stored in the combustion variation memory 22 and corresponding to the combustion stroke cylinder are both subtracted from the time required for the rotation which is obtained from the rotation detecting unit 1 .
  • a value obtained by that subtraction represents the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the presence or absence of a misfire with high accuracy.
  • that value is passed through the filter 23 to extract the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the presence or absence of a misfire, as shown in FIG. 5 .
  • One example of the filter 23 used for obtaining the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the presence or absence of a misfire, shown in FIG. 5 , from the time required for the rotation, shown in FIG. 4 , is a filter that subtracts, from the passage time of the cylinder in the combustion stroke at the present timing, the passage time of the preceding cylinder.
  • the threshold determination unit 24 determines, as shown in FIG. 5 , the presence of a misfire if an output of the filter 23 exceeds a certain value (threshold), and the absence of a misfire if it does not exceed the certain value.
  • the time required for the rotation which is outputted from the rotation detecting unit 1 at some timing, is Ti
  • the time required for the rotation outputted at timing preceding one cycle is Ti- 1
  • the time required for the rotation outputted at timing preceding two cycles is Ti- 2
  • the result of the misfire detection is plotted in a space having axes defined by Ti, Ti- 1 , Ti- 2 , etc. such that a symbol x is marked when the result of the misfire detection shows the occurrence of a misfire and a symbol ⁇ is marked when the result of the misfire detection shows normal combustion.
  • the space is divided into a region of the symbol ⁇ and a region of the symbol x with a certain plane being a boundary.
  • the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation, which is stored in the combustion variation memory 22 depends on the combustion stroke cylinder. Therefore, the result of the misfire detection is also changed depending on the combustion stroke cylinder. If the region of the symbol ⁇ and the region of the symbol x in the space defined by the axes Ti, - 1 , Ti- 2 , etc., shown in FIG. 6 , are changed depending on only the combustion stroke cylinder when the values stored in the non-combustion state time-required-for-rotation memory 21 are held constant by not issuing the fuel cut command, this can be regarded as indicating that the combustion variation memory 22 depending on the combustion stroke cylinder is properly used.
  • the time required for the rotation corresponding to the j-th cylinder when the fuel cut command is issued is ⁇ j and the difference ⁇ j and the time required for the rotation corresponding to the j-th cylinder when the fuel cut command is issued at the preceding timing is ⁇ j.
  • the result of the misfire detection is plotted in the space defined by the axes Ti, Ti- 1 , Ti- 2 , etc., as shown in FIG.
  • misfire space a symbol x is marked when the result of the misfire detection shows the occurrence of a misfire and a symbol ⁇ is marked when the result of the misfire detection shows normal combustion (the space being referred to as a “misfire space”).
  • the combustion stroke cylinder at the present timing is j(i)
  • the combustion stroke cylinder at the timing preceding one cycle is j(i-1)
  • the combustion stroke cylinder at the timing preceding two cycles is j(i-2)
  • the misfire space is shifted by ⁇ j(i), ⁇ j(i-1), ⁇ j(i-2), etc. in directions of the axes Ti, Ti- 1 , Ti- 2 , etc. in comparison with the misfire space prior to the fuel cut when the non-combustion state time-required-for-rotation memory 21 is provided. Whether the present invention is implemented as in this first embodiment can be confirmed based on such a shift of the misfire space.
  • FIG. 7 shows the configuration of the signal processing unit 2 in the second embodiment.
  • the signal processing unit 2 in the second embodiment is constituted by adding an engine revolution speed computing unit 25 to the signal processing unit 2 in the first embodiment so that the time required for the rotation is compensated by using the data stored in the non-combustion state time-required-for-rotation memory 21 and the combustion variation memory 22 depending on the engine revolution speed.
  • a time T_nofire required for the rotation in the non-combustion state is inversely proportional to the engine revolution speed n. Therefore, when fuel is cut, a value obtained by multiplying the passage time of each cylinder by the engine revolution speed is stored in the non-combustion state time-required-for-rotation memory 21 .
  • the value stored in the non-combustion state time-required-for-rotation memory 21 and corresponding to the cylinder, which is determined to be in the combustion stroke in accordance with the output of the combustion-stroke cylinder determining unit is divided by the engine revolution speed to compute the time required for the rotation in the non-combustion state for the relevant cylinder. The computed time required for the rotation is then used to compensate the time required for the rotation which is obtained from the rotation detecting unit 1 .
  • the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation is not always inversely proportional to the engine revolution speed.
  • the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation may have a constant value per cylinder or may be given as a function of the engine revolution speed per cylinder.
  • the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation, which is stored in the combustion variation memory 22 is given as one value per cylinder.
  • a value of the variation is changed depending on the engine revolution speed, it is given, for example, by preparing a map representing the relationship between the engine revolution speed and the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation, or parameters of a function representing the relationship between the engine revolution speed and the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation.
  • the variation in the time required for the rotation attributable to the combustion variation is stored in the combustion variation memory 22 in the stage of engine production.
  • the opposed cylinder misfire can be detected with higher accuracy by adding the engine revolution speed computing unit to the signal processing unit 2 in the first embodiment and by compensating the time required for the rotation by using the data stored in the non-combustion state time-required-for-rotation memory 21 and the combustion variation memory 22 depending on the engine revolution speed.
